Graduate US/UK Tax Associate in London

Graduate US/UK Tax Associate in London

London Full-Time On-site
Graduate Recruitment Bureau - GRB

SRDS Tax is a growing specialist US/UK tax advisory firm, founded in 2021 and based in central London. We advise internationally connected individuals, families, entrepreneurs, trusts and businesses on complex tax matters spanning both the United States and the United Kingdom.

Our work is divided across three specialist areas:

  • Trusts, Estates and Families
  • High Net Worth Private Client
  • Entrepreneurial Private Client

Graduates have the opportunity to work across these areas, gaining broad exposure before beginning to develop their own technical specialism. This is a particularly strong foundation for somebody interested in international tax, private clients, financial services or cross-border business.

As a boutique firm, we offer graduates something that can be difficult to obtain within a much larger organisation: early exposure to complex work, direct contact with clients and regular access to senior members of the firm. Our aim is to combine the technical quality and variety of a leading professional-services firm with the support, visibility and opportunities available in a growing specialist business.

Our graduate programme is intended to develop the future manager and leaders of SRDS Tax, rather than simply provide support for the senior members of the firm. A successful graduate can expect deliberate career progression with competitive compensation and broader opportunities to participate in the continued growth of the firm.

The Role:

  • Coordinate the collection and management of data from our clients including identifying outstanding data
  • Preparing professional emails and letters for review by senior members of the team
  • Assisting with the preparation of annual US and UK tax returns using specialist tax software
  • Supporting technical research and the preparation of tax advisory reports
  • Participating in internal meetings and client calls
  • Developing an understanding of the interaction between the US and UK tax systems
  • Building relationships with colleagues and clients across the firm
  • Taking increasing responsibility for assignments as your experience and technical knowledge develop

Training and Professional Development:

Successful candidates will receive structured training in both US and UK taxation. Graduates will be supported in working towards relevant professional qualifications, which may include:

  • Enrolled Agent qualification, providing a professional US tax credential
  • Association of Taxation Technicians qualification
  • Chartered Tax Adviser qualification

Graduates will have a dedicated manager responsible for their technical development, work allocation, feedback and career progression. They will also have access to a buddy who can help with day-to-day questions, systems and settling into professional life.

We recognise that international tax has a steep learning curve. We do not expect graduates to arrive with detailed technical knowledge. We are looking for people who are inquisitive, willing to learn and comfortable asking questions.

Candidate Requirements:

  • Predicted a 2:1 or above (or equivalent) in any degree subject
  • Have at least three A levels, or equivalent qualifications, at grade C or above
  • Be able to work regularly from our central London office
  • Be committed to undertaking relevant professional qualifications
  • Excellent verbal communication skills
  • Demonstrate a genuine interest in developing a career in international taxation

How to Apply:

Please submit your CV and a covering letter. You need to attach these in the same document in order to be considered.

What do you need?

  • Predicted a 2:1 degree (or equivalent) in any subject
  • A minimum of CCC at A Level
  • Commitment to studying towards professional tax qualifications e.g. ATT
  • Evidence of strong extra-curricular interests and achievements
  • Excellent verbal communication skills
